Pastor E.A. Adeboye Gives Men Wise Counsel On What To Do ‘If A Woman Says She’s Going To Deal With You’
The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye has advised men not to fight women, but to flee when they are threatened to deal with them.
The clergyman stated that when a woman says she will deal with a man, he has to run so he can live to fight another day. According to the man of God who will soon turn 80 years old in March, a man must know when to fight and when to run.
Daddy G.O. as he’s fondly called gave the advice at a special online service on Sunday January 9, Vanguard reports.
Citing the classical biblical case of Elijah and Jezebel to buttress his point, Pastor Adeboye who has been happily married for over 50 years said:
“Elijah arrived at Jezreel, sat down in his house and was enjoying the victories that had happened. He had just called down fire from heaven.
He had prophesied and prayed and there was rain for the first time in three years. He had brought about national revival. He had outrun the chariot of the King.
He was happy but then a message came from the First Lady of the land: ‘I heard what you did on Mount Carmel, I swear to you by my gods by this time tomorrow, you will be like one of the prophets that you killed’. Elijah the great man of God ran, the man who dared 450 prophets ran from a woman.
I know a lot of people have said how could that be? Elijah was very wise. I have told you men of God again and again, don’t fight a woman.
If a woman says she is going to deal with you, run. If you learn to run today, you will be alive to fight tomorrow. The African elders have a saying “the one who knows when to fight and when to run is the one they call the champion”. You must know when to fight and when to run.
When Jezebel says “I am coming for you” Elijah did the right thing. He ran.”
